Sprint today announced that its all-new network shares first-place RootScore(R) Awards for call performance in both Tulsa and Oklahoma City, along with a joint first-place RootScore Award for text performance in Tulsa, according to a recent report by independent testing company RootMetrics(R).

Last week Sprint also introduced new shared data plans that offer double the high-speed data at the same price as AT&T and Verizon Wireless.

“We’re very proud to report that Sprint’s all-new network offers outstanding call performance in Tulsa and Oklahoma City,” said Joe Meyer, vice president of Sprint Network Performance. “With our new data plans, there’s never been a better time to switch to America’s Newest Network.”

Best Deal on Data

The Sprint Family Share Pack offers double the high-speed shareable data1 for smartphones, basic phones, tablets and mobile broadband devices. For example, customers can get four lines and 20GB of data for $160 compared to 10GB of data for the same price from AT&T or Verizon. Sprint is offering a limited-time promotion for the Sprint Family Share Pack: For a family with up to 10 lines, get 20GB of Shared Data and Unlimited Talk & Text for only $100 a month through 20152 – and, as an added bonus, customers will get an additional 2GB per line for up to 10 lines. For a family of four, that’s a savings of $60 per month better than AT&T’s and Verizon’s current pricing through 2015; double the data of Verizon; and more than double the high-speed data of AT&T and T-Mobile.

Sprint also now offers the best unlimited wireless plan available from a national carrier with the Sprint $60 Unlimited Plan. This plan provides consumers unlimited talk, text and data while on America’s Newest Network for just $60 per month, a $20 savings compared to T-Mobile’s $80 per month unlimited plan. Simple, easy, affordable – the Sprint $60 Unlimited Plan is available to both new and existing Sprint customers. To qualify for the plan, customers must purchase their device through Sprint Easy Pay, pay full retail price or bring their own compatible device.
